CHAPEL with A GOOD SPEAKER
- his speech did impact me! -


ermm .. i've got something to share with u .. i duno .. i just find it very interesting and very motivative.. it was monday nite .. when we usually have chapel in the boardin hse ... the usual reactions would be like .. "aww .. not again " .. or .. "wat a waste of time . why cant they just cancel it .. " and so on the negative comments of it ... and usually at this time .. everyone is kinda locked inside the dining room and was only allowed to go back after chapel's over .. after dinner .. and in tat case .. normally.. i would be either doozing off to sleep or .. day dreaming .. :P not a real good listener when it comes to chapel .. but surprisingly .. monday .. i kinda pay attention to wat the reverend said .. weird eh?? but i supposed he was a really good speaker .. will try to recap wat he said ..

firstly .. he said ..wat is it to like to live young?? .. well .. i suppose this u guys clearer than me .. tat is live young is not to try all the harmful drugs or do anything to harm ppl or harm ourselves .. live young is to be young in spirit and enthusiastic in life .. yupz .. he spoke of those first .. which kinda attracted my attn bcos they were words of familiarity .. i heard it before from someone older.. someone rather important in my life :) yup yup .. live young .. kidults! and be good!

after that .. he asked .. who would love to be loved .. i raised my hands .. and i wasnt ashamed .. cos i really know wat it was like to feel unloved .. and he shared his experience of his christianity life .. and how god loves him ..but i'm not gonna go into details .. but yeah .. i do agree with him tat being loved is very important! .. so yeah ..

but the most interesting thing is yet to come .. he said once when they promoted the mini cooper or smtg.. the company had this slogan .. "life's like a journey, enjoy the ride" .. he caught the company caught the public's attention becos it relates to life and it is a metaphor .. he asked us .. wat is the things tat u would care if u were on the care ride???

well .. he came up with 4 most vital things
comfort
acceptance
being forgiven
and the purpose

think about it .


i guess he's kinda rite .. comfort .. u would wanna feel comfortable when u're on the car ride .. seatin on a comfortably soft jumpy cushion .. and with air conditioning and stuff... same in life .. u would wanna have a way of living tat u're comfortable in .. being urself and doing wat u want in ur way .. then comes in acceptance.. in a ride.. its best if u have a partner or a companion who accepts u .. it's really crude to be socially rejected .. i guess i dun really wanna be unaccepted~ :P and he also said tat it feels really good to be forgiven .. knowing tat u've done wrong but then being forgiven simply ease ur guilt .. i cant bare coping with guilt .. finally is the purpose .. wat is ur purpose of going on the car ride?? similiarly wat is the purpose of living????

i know my purpose of living.. i know i'm just so lucky to come to this world .. and i try to live everyday to the fullest ..try to make and cheer everyone inc myself up even though things are simply just out of place and dun turn out well .. i'm trying to live life to the fullest cos i want no regrets .. (i know i will have some but trying to minimize them) i know i'm not perfect .. but still. .. i enjoy being imperfect~ :p i know God has given me the best thing on world .. and i'm thankful for tat and thankful tat he's given me a purpose of living..

i guess the reverend is a really good speaker hey~. .. i think all these times .. he was the best one that i've ever listened to.. :P ..

just feel like sharing with u ~ .. think about it ..

is ur car ride or journey enjoyable??
